Re: how to configure a pc with a parallel port transfer to your IIGS.

Ryan:
If your Athelon PC has a serial port, you can null modem to the IIgs
using ADTgs.  (IIgs, Modem Cable, Null modem adapter, Athelon)

Of course if your Athelon has a modem, use a phone cord between the two
modems.  Get to a terminal screen on both computers once connected and
do an ATD on one then ATA on the other to establish communications and
transfer files using the comm software file transfer options.

If you do not have a serial port, get one, they are fairly inexpensive
and very standard.  I dare say a necessity when when you want to talk to
your Apple II.

Feel free to drop us a note if you need further explanation.
